The search for antimicrobial agents from plants has been a growing interest in the last few decades. However, results generated from many of these studies cannot be directly compared due to the absence of standardization in particular antimicrobial methods employed. The need for established methods with consistent results for the evaluation of antimicrobial activities from plant extracts has been proposed by many researchers. Nevertheless, there are still many studies reported in the literature describing different methodologies. The aim of this study was to find optimal methods to give consistent quantitative antimicrobial results for studying plant extracts. Three different agar-based assays (pour plate disc diffusion (PPDD), streak plate disc diffusion (SPDD) and well-in agar (WA)) and one broth-based (turbidometric (TB)) assay were used in this study. Extracts from two plant species (Duabanga grandiflora and Acalypha wilkesiana) were tested on two bacterial species, namely Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Amongst the agar-based assays, PPDD produced the most reproducible results. TB was able to show the inhibitory effects of the test samples on the growth kinetic of the bacteria including plant extracts with low polarity. We propose that both agar- (i.e PPDD) and broth-based assays should be employed when assessing the antimicrobial activity of plant crude extracts. 相似文献

Polysaccharide transglycosylases catalyze disproportionation of polysaccharide molecules by cleaving glycosidic linkages in
polysaccharide chains and transferring their cleaved portions to hydroxyl groups at the non-reducing ends of other polysaccharide
or oligosaccharide molecules. In plant cell walls, transglycosylases have a potential to catalyze both cross-linking of polysaccharide
molecules and grafting of newly arriving polysaccharide molecules into the cell wall structure during cell growth. Here we
describe a polysaccharide microarray in form of a glycochip permitting simultaneous high-throughput monitoring of multiple
transglycosylase activities in plant extracts. The glycochip, containing donor polysaccharides printed onto nitrocellulose-coated
glass slides, was incubated with crude plant extracts, along with a series of fluorophore-labelled acceptor oligosaccharides.
After removing unused labelled oligosaccharides by washing, fluorescence retained on the glycochip as a result of transglycosylase
reaction was detected with a standard microarray scanner. The glycochip assay was used to detect transglycosylase activities
in crude extracts from nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) and mouse-ear cress (Arabidopsis thaliana). A number of previously unknown saccharide donor-acceptor pairs active in transglycosylation reactions that lead to the
formation of homo- and hetero-glycosidic conjugates, were detected. Our data provide experimental support for the existence
of diverse transglycosylase activities in crude plant extracts. 相似文献

We established a continuous semi-microassay, and for large-scale studies both a stopped and a continuous microtiter plate assay for the fluorometric determination of cathepsin L and cathepsin S activities in body fluids, tissues or cell extracts in the presence of cathepsin B. For the detection of enzymatic activities we used the synthetic substrate Z-Phe-Arg-AMC, and for discrimination between cathepsin L, S and cathepsin B the specific inhibitor CA-074 for blocking interfering cathepsin B activities was applied. Furthermore, we took advantage of the stability of cathepsin S at pH 7.5 for further differentiation between cathepsin L and cathepsin S activities. The kinetic assays were characterized in terms of imprecision, analytical sensitivity, accuracy and substrate concentration. The within-run coefficients of variation were found to be 4.9%-7.2% for the continuous semi-microassay, 10.3%-11.7% for the stopped, and 4.5%-11.8% for the continuous microtiter plate assay. The between-days coefficients of variation for the continuous semi-microassay were 8.1%-8.9%, while for the stopped and continuous microtiter plate assays the coefficients were 11.2%-13.5% and 5.8%-12.2%, respectively. Compared to the continuous semi-microassay, the stopped and the continuous microtiter plate assays showed 3-fold and 11-fold higher sensitivity, respectively. Comparison between the continuous enzyme activity assays at substrate concentrations of 40 microM and 200 microM demonstrated a significant correlation of r = 0.97 and r = 0.99, respectively. The newly developed microtiter plate assay will allow efficient, sensitive and high precision determination of cathepsin L and cathepsin S activities in large-scale studies of cysteine-cathepsin dependent diseases. 相似文献

A rapid colourimetric method of determination of nitrate was modified. Proposed modifications eliminated the use of barium sulphate and introduced diazotization of sulphanilamide by the nitrite ion obtained by the reduction of nitrate and subsequent coupling with N-1-naphthyethelenediamine dihydrochloride. Introduction of filtration in place of centrifugation of coloured solution simplified the procedure. Determinations were highly reproducible with coefficient of variation of 2.2 and 2.9% for soil and plant extracts respectively. 相似文献

Cytotoxic and antiviral activities of Colombian medicinal plant extracts of the Euphorbia genus 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Betancur-Galvis LA Morales GE Forero JE Roldan J 《Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz》2002,97(4):541-546
Forty-seven plant extracts of 10 species of the genus Euphorbia (Euphorbiaceae) used by Colombian traditional healers for the treatment of ulcers, cancers, tumors, warts, and other diseases, were tested in vitro for their potential antitumour (antiproliferative and cytotoxic) and antiherpetic activity. To evaluate the capacity of the extracts to inhibit the lytic activity of herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) and the reduction of viability of infected or uninfected cell cultures, the end-point titration technique (EPTT) and the MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] colorimetric assay were used, respectively. The therapeutic index of the positive extracts for the antiviral activity was determined by calculating the ratio CC50 (50% cytotoxic concentration) over IC50 (50% inhibitory concentration of the viral effect). Five of the 47 extracts (11%) representing 3 out of 10 Euphorbia species (30%) exhibited antiherpetic action; the highest activity was found in the leaf/stem water-methanol extracts from E. cotinifolia and E. tirucalli. The therapeutic indexes of these two plant species were > 7.1; these extracts exhibited no cytotoxicity. Six extracts (13%) representing 4 plant species (40%) showed cytotoxic activity. The highest cytotoxicity was found in the dichloromethane extract obtained from E. cotinifolia leaves and the CC50 values for the most susceptible cell lines, HEp-2 and CHO, were 35.1 and 18.1 microgram/ml, respectively. 相似文献

Pest-managing activities of plant extracts and anthraquinones from Cassia nigricans from Burkina Faso 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Insecticidal activity of eight plants collected from Burkina Faso was studied using mosquito (Ochlerotatus triseriatus), Helicoverpa zea and Heliothis virescens larvae and adult white fly (Bemisia tabaci). The n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of Pseudocedrela kotschyi, Strophantus hispidus, Securidaca longepedunculata, Sapium grahamii, Swartzia madagascariensis, Cassia nigricans, Jatropha curcas and Datura innoxia were used in this study. Extracts were tested at 250 microg/mL concentration. All three extracts of C. nigricans, J. curcas (skin and seeds) and D. innoxia exhibited 100% mortality on fourth instar mosquito (O. triseriatus) larvae. In addition, the n-hexane and ethyl acetate extracts of S. hispidus, S. longepedunculata, S. grahamii showed 100% mortality. The ethyl acetate extract of S. madagascariensis was the most active on adult white fly and exhibited 80% mortality. Extracts of all other plants exhibited 30-50% mortality on B. tabaci. In the antifeedant assays against H. zea and H. virescens, the MeOH extracts of C. nigricans, S. madagascarensis and S. hispidus were more effective against H. zea as indicated by 74% larval weight reduction as compared to the control. Since C. nigricans is commonly used in West Africa to protect grain storage from insects, we have characterized the insecticidal components present in its extract. Bioassay directed isolation of C. nigricans leaf extract yielded anthraquinones emodin, citreorosein, and emodic acid and a flavonoid, luteolin. Emodin, the most abundant and active anthraquinone in C. nigricans showed approximately 85% mortality on mosquito larvae Anopheles gambiaea and adult B. tabaci at 50 and 25 microg/mL, respectively, in 24 h. These results suggest that the extract of C. nigricans has the potential to be used as an organic approach to manage some of the agricultural pests. 相似文献

Two radioimmunoassays have been developed which allow the parallel quantitation of free as well as conjugated natural (+)-abscisic acid (ABA) directly and separately, in unpurified plant extracts. The differential specificity of antisera has been achieved by coupling ABA through C1 (for total ABA determination) or C4 (for free ABA determination), respectively, to proteins to obtain the immunogenic conjugates. Compounds structurally related to ABA, such as, dihydrophaseic acid or phaseic acid, do not interfere with either of the assays, even when present in more than ten-fold excess. Other related compounds, such as, violaxanthin or xanthoxin, do not cross react at all. Both antisera respond to (+)-ABA but show very low immunoreactivity with (-)-ABA. As little as 27 pg of ABA (serum for free ABA) or 47 pg (serum for total ABA) may be detected and the measuring ranges are from 0.2–8 and 0.2–30 pmol, respectively. Average recoveries are greater than 99%. Using these assays, more than 100 samples can be assayed for free and conjugated ABA per day. Levels of free ABA, as determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA), correlated well with those reported in the literature. Levels of conjugated ABA were found to be generally higher than previously reported for ABA after alkaline hydrolysis of the extracts. Conjugated ABA accumulates during aging of leaves and levels of conjugated ABA up to 17-fold higher than those of free ABA have been detected in senescent leaves of Hyoscyamus niger L. Evidence was obtained for the presence of ABA conjugates other than the glucose ester in some plants.Abbreviations ABA

The pharmacological effects of ethanolic Vitex agnus-castus fruit-extracts (especially Ze 440) and various extract fractions of different polarities were evaluated both by radioligand binding studies and by superfusion experiments. A relative potent binding inhibition was observed for dopamine D2 and opioid (micro and kappa subtype) receptors with IC50 values of the native extract between 20 and 70 mg/mL. Binding, neither to the histamine H1, benzodiazepine and OFQ receptor, nor to the binding-site of the serotonin (5-HT) transporter, was significantly inhibited. The lipophilic fractions contained the diterpenes rotun-difuran and 6beta,7beta-diacetoxy-13-hydroxy-labda-8,14-dien . They exhibited inhibitory actions on dopamine D2 receptor binding. While binding inhibition to mu and kappa opioid receptors was most pronounced in lipophilic fractions, binding to delta opioid receptors was inhibited mainly by a aqueous fraction. Standardised Ze 440 extracts of different batches were of constant pharmacological quality according to their potential to inhibit the binding to D2 receptors. In superfusion experiments, the aqueous fraction of a methanolic extract inhibited the release of acetylcholine in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, the potent D2 receptor antagonist spiperone antagonised the effect of the extract suggesting a dopaminergic action mediated by D2 receptor activation. Our results indicate a dopaminergic effect of Vitex agnus-castus extracts and suggest additional pharmacological actions via opioid receptors. 相似文献

In the present study, we were interested in the effect of salt stress on phenolic and carotenoid contents, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of two varieties of Carthamus tinctorius (Jawhara and 104) flowers. For this purpose, C. tinctorius flowers from plants grown under four saline treatments (0, 5, 10 and 15 g/L NaCl) were collected at two development stages. As salinity increased up to 10 g/L, results showed that total phenols, flavonoids, condensed tannins and carotenoid contents increased with salinity. Such variability might be of great importance in terms of valorizing this plant as a source of naturally secondary metabolites. Furthermore, our results showed an enhancement of antioxidant activity which was evaluated by four different test systems (DPPH, β-carotene–linoleic acid, chelating and reducing power assays) with increasing stress severity. Obtained results showed that, for the two varieties, salt effect was more pronounced at post flowering stage than full flowering one. The sensitivity test of the methanolic extracts of the harvested flowers was applied against seven human pathogenic bacteria and three yeast strains. Salinity reduced significantly the antimicrobial activity of flower extracts. 相似文献
